About Us

The EuroPython conference is organised by volunteers from the Python community across Europe and beyond.

Behind the scenes, it is run by the EuroPython Society (EPS), a Swedish non-profit organisation responsible for the legal and financial aspects of the conference, as well as overall coordination.

In accordance with the EPS bylaws, the society is governed by a board consisting of a chairperson, a vice chairperson, and between two and seven additional board members, all elected annually by its members.

Current Board Members:

  • Anders Hammarquist
  • Aris Nivorils
  • Artur Czepiel (Chair)
  • Cyril Bitterich
  • Ege Akman
  • Mia BajiΔ‡ (Vice Chair)
  • Shekhar Koirala

Where Does Our Surplus Go?

If the conference generates a surplus, all proceeds go back to the community. The funds are allocated as follows:

  • Grants – We support Python community events across Europe through our grants programme. Learn more about grants here.
  • Financial Aid – We provide assistance to help individuals attend EuroPython who might not otherwise be able to. Learn more about finaid here.

Teams

We’re organised into teams, each focused on a different area of the conference. Every team is made up of volunteers donating their time and skills to make the event possible.

The full list of our team members can be found on our teams page.
